Containership, a company rooted in making
hybrid and multi-cloud computing simple, is expanding their offering
with the announcement of the public beta release of Overlaycloud. While
the service is currently still invite only, interested parties can sign
up to gain exclusive first access to the low cost cloud and edge
computing platform beginning today.
Overlaycloud has partnered with several data
centers to help monetize and take advantage of their unused computing
power. The end result is top tier servers at bottom dollar pricing for
the consumer, and availability zones in regions that the big cloud
providers don't currently operate in.
With the initial release of the product, the
company is offering 4 different instance types all of which represent
significant cost savings over similar sized instance types offered by
competing VPS and Cloud hosting providers.
When asked why Containership created
Overlaycloud, CEO Phil Dougherty said, "With the rise in popularity of
Internet of Things, Virtual Reality, and Augmented Reality devices in
our homes and workplaces, being able to process data close to the edge
is becoming an important requirement for software companies. The Cloud
is great for processing mountains of data, but does not lend well to
situations where extremely low latency connectivity is a hard
requirement. With Overlaycloud, we are partnering with web hosting
providers and data centers to help monetize their idle capacity, and
provide extremely low cost VPS style hosting in very unique regions
around the globe."
